Don't think he's anything more than another Dustin Jeffrey/Chris Bourque/Andy Miele type. Good enough to dominate the AHL, not good enough to stick in an NHL team's top six and no other skills to make him worth a spot in their bottom six.

From a Devils fan that has watched him for the last few years, I think he could be a good fourth liner.

He is a reliable two-way forward with some speed and a very good shot. It just seems like in the NHL, he doesn't have the time and space that he has in the AHL. I could see a coaching staff that really likes him giving him consistent time on a fourth line with PK duties and he has enough skill to contribute offensively as well.

I am absolutely SHOCKED at this revelation.

Players like this are a dime a dozen and I am quite frankly appalled, borderline angry, this one has his own thread.

This is my thinking from a Habs point of view. I would offer Brian Flynn. He could be useful as a bottom line forward or 13th forward. The Devils could get a player who can play at the NHL level. It would open up a roster spot for potentially a kid to make the Habs. The Habs would then get Sislo who can be a point producer in the AHL.

I am not so sure if Devils fans find this as a win/win type of trade but that should be his realistic value.
